Sleep Well

No more sleep goodnight kiss
 Nurse's hands will tuck you in
 No husband to sleep next to
 The children say goodnight to you
 No more missing him at night
 You think that he's by your side
 No more funerals to bear
 Everyone who left is here
 You used to say the night may be long
 But the day will shortly come
 No troubles have you, none
 So sleep well darling til the morning
 No more nights when you can't sleep
 Walking through the house you'd keep
 In the dark you were afraid
 Someone else could slip away
 You would sit beside our beds
 Watch our breathing as we slept
 No photos of us next to you
 You can't see them but we do
 You used to say the night may be long
 But the day will shortly come
 No troubles have you, none
 So sleep well darling til the morning
 Sleep well mother til the morning
